Whomper to Seek Assistance From Lawrence Businessmen
By JEFF STINSON
Kansas Staff Renorter
The University of Kansas Reclamation Center is presently contacting Lawrence businesses to ask them to use their bottles and containers for disposal, director of the center, said yesterday.
Poet to Read Russian Works
Russian poet Robert Rozhdestensky will read and discuss Soviet poetry tomorrow night in the Kansas Union, according to Gerald Mikhelson, associate professor of Slavic language and literature.
Rozh迭盛vensky, one of the most prominent modern Russian poets, according to Mikkelson will speak at 8 p.m. in the Forum Room.
Because Rozhdestvensky speaks, only Russian, an interpreter will be present at the readings. His works will either be read aloud in English or translated copies of the works will be handed out before the poet reads them in Russian.
Rozhdestensky, 41 years old, is a member of a delegation of Soviet young people participating in the American-Soviet Youth Forum 1973. The program is billed as education between young people and information between young people of the two countries to help create mutual understanding.
"He is a youth-oriented poet," said Mikelson. "In Soviet society 40 is considered young. In the United States 40 is middle-aged."
Mikkelsen said Rozhdestvensky was considered to be an authority on youth and was the winner of an important youth award presented by the Communist Youth League.
"Rozhdestvensky is basically a civic poet, involved in the contemporary social issues of war and peace," Mikkelson said. "The traditional themes of lyric poetry love, and other intertiaces are also used by him. He is not arrow poet but one of broad interest."
A loud delivery is a highlight of a Rozhdestensky presentation.
"Rozhdestvensky's delivery is loud and brash, dramatic and direct," said Mikkelson. "It is his personality that he pours into it."
Admission is free and a reception will follow the program.
NOW AT TOWN CRIER
The Whornper, which gets its name from the note that it makes, crushes cans and pans.
Alen said she hoped the Whompr could become self-sufficient with the help of the business. The project has been receiving funds from the Student Senate since 1971.
"The idea of contacting businessmen was suggested by a Lawrence city commissioner," she said. "So far, the merger was successful and have expressed interest in the project."
Allen said the Whomper had had an increase in volume over the summer, which was likely due to the high demand.
She said she hoped it was a sign that the project_would soon become a sufficient-self.
"The center is receiving $3,400 from the Student Senate this year," she said. "Three-quarters of that money goes to paying rent on the building."
She said the Whamper paid the salaries of two four employees out of money received from her employer.
president, said that other than the volunteer efforts of one senator and the funding, the Student Senate had shown absolutely no interest in the project this year.
Allen, the 1972-73 student body vice
Mert Buckley, Wichita senior and student body president, said that the senate had helped the Whomper and had allocated $4,600, not $3,400, to it this year.
"We have been helping the Whomper by mentioning it during freshman orientation as one of the senate's projects which needs volunteer help," he said. "The Whomper is also mentioned in senate literature available to students."
Buckley said that he too, would very much like to see the Whomper become self-aware.
